Peg, this is great. Thank you! I wish I had that software. Well, actually, maybe not. Then I REALLY wouldn't get anything done!

Peg, tell me:

a) what's the difference between #2 and #3?

b) what's exactly going on in the light brown border? Or is that just the print on the fabric?

Love this idea ! Just the other day I came across a picture of wall tiles that inspired me to sit down and design a quilt~ inspiration comes from so many things ~ words, pictures, movement ~ and from all over the world !

Just wanted to post an update.

Some of the designs I found and the EQ design gal288 shared with me inspired me to try applying stack-and-whack/kaleidoscope to this quilt.

I include below the original fabric plus the result which will be the center of the quilt.

The original fabric

The quilt's center using above fabric

Looking good girl, like the sashing, getting a real tile feel. Keep up the good work, love the fabric and colors.
